Abstract:

A new airport is being planned for Orange County. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill would benefit most from the airport, but would be good for the county as well. However, university leaders and county leaders are fighting over control of the proposed airport. Both sides have not been consulted about plans, accusations about backroom deals have been made, and there is debate over the cost, location, and economic impact.
